Viewers were made to think The Real Full Monty: Ladies Night was all about raising awareness and funds for breast cancer.

While it did raise huge awareness and encourage viewers to check their bodies a host of the stars took a massive payday in the name of charity. It’s pretty appalling that this wasn’t made clear to viewers.

Fans will be furious that they pocketed such huge sums.

Some viewers shared their opinion on the whole thing on Twitter, suggesting the celebrities shouldn’t have taken any fee for the charity show.

Just remember people when there collecting money for charity THE REAL FULL MONTY LADIES NIGHT raised £4000 then the eight ladies involved take £10,000 each so the charity makes minus £76,000 what a fantastic gesture by all the ladies involved

This process has made me really happy. I’ve had such a good time. Tonight there might be someone watching who learns something about breast cancer they didn’t know before and it might save their life. And that is massive.
